Do you have a long holiday weekend this weekend? Looking for something to read? Do I have a series for you.
The Ridiculous Future Bullshit Series is a sequel to a more serious series (which you don't have to read to follow this one) in which Wei Wuxian travels back in time to try to fix canon. He's not wholly successful, but he makes enough positive changes to result in this much crackier series wherein he, Jiang Cheng, Jiang Yanli, Lan Wangji, Lan Sizhui, Lan Xichen, and Wen Qing are living in modern times because they cultivated to immortality.
The country we know as China doesn't exist because the lands never unified. It consists of a group of countries collectively known as the Five Nations: Yungmeng, Gusu, Lanling, Qishan, and Qinghe. Five Nations people know that cultivation is real (was real?--it doesn't seem to be practiced anymore) and that seven immortals exist among them. People in Western countries may or may not believe that cultivation is real, but they think the Seven Immortals are the Five Nations pantheon of gods (Wei Wuxian takes enormous delight in his status as the pantheon's trickster god).
Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian have been married for a thousand years and have seen their story become a fable and part of pop culture, although in their day-to-day lives, no one knows they're Hanguang Jun and the Yiling Patriarch (despite Wei Wuxian also taking enormous delight in regularly wearing Yiling Patriarch T-shirts) because they move around a lot and use aliases.
My favorite stories are the ones where Lan Wangji expresses his epic displeasure to the producer of a movie in which Hanguang Jun marries Princess Lotus Blossom, Wei Wuxian helps build the Yiling Patriarch float at Pride, and one of the longer fics in the series where Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji stop traveling and settle in one place for six years so that Lan Wangji can get his DVM to cope with the heartbreak of losing one of his foster bunnies. This leaves Wei Wuxian with some time on his hands, which he uses to live his best chaos gremlin life (I would love to watch his YouTube channel).
TEASER
He comes to lunch that day, and drops down to sit next to Jordan.
"I looked up all your class's grades," he says, which is a thing he absolutely should not have been able to do. "This course is kicking your butts and it shouldn't be. I have to ask. Is it Lan Zhan?"
"It. Uh. I," Jordan says, because she definitely has not managed to overcome her life-ruining crush on his husband. Apparently that's enough.
"Thought so," Jiang Ying says. "Let me guess, he's sitting at the front and being all... him, right? He's just the worst that way."
